Explanation:

Response
Question 7
Brief Explanations

RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) consists of a sugar - phosphate backbone. The sugar in RNA is ribose. Deoxyribose is the sugar in DNA. Phosphate is a part of the backbone but not the sugar, and nitrogen is part of the nitrogenous bases, not the sugar.

Brief Explanations

Lipids are a group of hydrophobic molecules. The main types of lipids include fats, oils, waxes, and sterols (like cholesterol). Proteins and enzymes (which are mostly proteins) are different macromolecules, and galactose is a sugar (a carbohydrate), not a lipid.

Answer:

A. Ribose
